Cape Light Compact Executive Committee April 24, 2015 Open Session Meeting Minutes Page 2
2016-18 DRAFT ENERGY EFFICIENCY PLAN (EEP)
M. Downey provided a Power Point Presentation (Attachment A) and provided information on the process for
plan approval. She said the Penetration Study is being finalized and will be updated over the summer before the
final 2016-18 EEP is filed in November.
She reviewed the Energy Efficiency Advisory Council’s (EEAC) proposed goals and explained the savings goals sales
numbers represent kWh sales for the Cape and Vineyard..
D. Anthony arrived to the meeting @ 1:46 p.m.
The Cape Light Compact’s goals are lower than the EEAC has proposed. She reviewed the Dashboard View of the 2016-
21 (covering two 3-year plans) as prepared by Dunsky Energy Consulting and the projected 2016, 2017 & 2018 Annual
EE Budgets. The format used is the same as the format used for the Treasurer’s Reports.
P. Cabana & P. Pimentel arrived to the meeting @1:51 p.m.
There was review of the most significant increases which occur in the Residential Sector. M. Song explained it is in part
due to the expansion of the multi-family program to include oil and gas heat customers. In addition there are
enhancements into new areas such as demand response, electric vehicle charging stations, , etc. and continuing with the
0% interest HEAT loan for EE improvements.
It was discussed that it is difficult to approve programs without knowing the costs. The proposed 2016-18 Plan includes a
30% budget increase. M. Downey explained the proposal includes all existing and new program measures, and reminded
the Board that this is the 1st of 2 drafts, and the Board will be reviewing cost impacts at future meetings. Staff will
continue to refine the draft EEP through May-September.
M. Downey reported all evaluations applicable to the proposal will be complete by the end of June. The Bill impact has
not yet been calculated. The Board will provide feedback between now and October 31st. The Board approved
increasing the incentive from 85% to 100% for non-profit organizations which serve low-income customers.
P. Cocolis added that the current environment is an energy council that has a set of goals and they want all to participate
and are measured on how well they are doing. The Cape Light Compact’s role is to achieve their goals but needs to be
mindful of the budget.
Every year the energy efficiency surcharge is trued-up by the DPU. If activity falls off the surcharge is adjusted. The
programs are all participation driven. Bill impacts also have to be trued up every year. The Energy Efficiency Advisory
Council (EEAC) is established by statute with a goal and an objective to provide direction on 3-year planning. If our
goals are not met, they can easily incorporate us into another larger group. It is a statewide goal and the Compact’s goals
are a small percent of the statewide goals. The Compact will have to make our case as to why our goals are what they are.
M. Song added that these are electric savings goals. The Board supports all fuels. Customers heating with propane or oil
are paying into the Energy Efficiency Fund.
The hard to measure savings are the only limitations. All of the programs have to be cost effective. There are no plans to
increase staffing. The budget includes maintenance costs associated with the database.
There was discussion about State-wide policies moving toward energy efficiency and continual new technology.
There was discussion about the 30% budget increase and if it reflects the build-out. R. Zweig asked if increasing from a
2% electric savings goal to 3% electric savings goal, if the (Benefit/Cost Ratio) BCR factor needs to change to see if it
needs to be higher or how to manage otherwise.
The Cape Light Compact staff is confident with their goals set and there was no support to change around to get into a
number. Once the bill impact is calculated if board feels the impact is too high, the staff will bring it back for adjustment.

It was said that the majority of the budget is paid to vendors, and staff was asked whether the Compact is prepared to take
these goals with existing staff. . The Commercial and Industrial (C&I) programs will bring in new vendors to manage
those sectors.
It was agreed the Compact can look into switching on HES under RCS. C&I have available write-off’s not available for
the residential programs.
D. Anthony said the Compact is finishing a 3-year Energy Efficiency Plan which was pretty aggressive. He said if more
resources were available, more audits could have been completed. At times there is a 6-8 week wait for an audit. He
would like to see talking points developed. M. Downey agreed adding the Board can take pride in the fact the Compact
has shaped the plan based upon what the community wants. The Compact is mandated to complete all cost effective
measurers.
B. Schofield moved the Executive Committee vote to approve the draft proposed goals and budgets presented by staff for
the 2016-2018 Energy Efficiency Plan, seconded by B. Worth and voted unanimously in favor. M. Downey reminded the
Board this is the 1st draft of goals. There will be draft Budget presented in May and Conflict of Interest Law training. She
said the Bill impact will be reviewed at the June Meeting.
At 2:48 p. m. P. Cocolis moved to adjourn, seconded by B. Worth and voted unanimously in favor.
Respectfully submitted,
Karen E. Loura

CHAIRMAN’S REPORT
The Chairman noted that she brought a cake to the meeting to celebrate Compact staff and read out loud a
statement in support of the Compact staff’s resilient efforts over the past several years. Tom Donegan moved to
adopt the statement as an official proclamation of the Board, which was seconded by Ron Zweig. The Board
then considered that such a vote was not referenced on the meeting notice. Therefore, the Board instead agreed
to support the sentiment of the Chairman as the unanimous sense of the Board.
M. Downey introduced Greg Abbe who was hired to fill the Residential Program Coordinator position. G.
Abbe provided a brief history indicating he comes to Cape Cod from Washington DC where he worked in the
energy efficiency industry and has performed energy audits.
M. Downey introduced Dave Botelho who was recently hired for one year as a Computer System Analyst. He
has worked with the Compact through his position at Honeywell. He is working to assist with the transition to
the new data base system.
Chr. Flynn acknowledged Joseph Soares, former Sr. Power Supply Planner presence and announced E. Horn,
Sandwich member and P. Fontecchio, Truro member have resigned from the Board. P. Fontecchio introduced
Joseph Buteau who will replace him as the new Truro Board Member.
TREASURER’S REPORT
P. Cocolis distributed the 3-year energy efficiency plan budget comparison report and provided an overview.
He reviewed the operation budget expenditure totals through 6/8/15. He said overages in Group Ins. &
Medicare will be corrected by transfer at the close of the Fiscal Year.
DISCUSSION AND VOTE ON PROPOSED FY16 OPERATING BUDGET M. Downey reviewed arrangement for office space in Open Cape Building and reviewed costs. The amount of
rent the Cape Light Compact will pay per square foot is the same as the State is paying, and it is currently below

market. She said solar panels will be used to offset electric expense. The move is anticipated to take place the
middle of July.
The IT budget increased to $35,000 (an additional $11,000 over last year’s budget) due to increased services.
There was discussion about the reduction in the legal services budget. To update the Aggregation Plan was
legally intensive. Now that it is complete the legal services budget can be decreased. M. Downey said any
unforeseen budget expense would require a supplemental budget adjustment vote of the Board. D. Anthony
asked if consideration was given to a private storefront to accommodate the Cape Light Compact offices. M.
Downey said that she believes leasing with the County is a good deal. She said County charges for IT, rent and
finance support will be monitored. P. Cocolis said Cape Light Compact is a marginal expense to the county.
Therefore, it would be difficult to obtain better pricing privately.
R. Zweig noted financial support to the Cape & Vineyard Electric Cooperative (CVEC) has ended which is an
indication they are self-supporting. There was discussion about the term of the line of credit issued for CVEC.
F. Fenlon asked whether CVEC will need additional financial support. CVEC is operationally independent.
T. Donegan asked of the Executive Committee should look into the charges the Compact is paying for services
to see if the amounts are right. He said he believes a review is worthwhile because the amounts seem like a lot
of month.
J. Bernstein read an excerpt from the May, 2014 minutes relative to CVEC line of credit which was issued for
start-up purposes and is no longer available.
M. Downey explained the Cape Light Compact IT comparable costs include Munis, and IT servers. She said
access to that type of software cannot be purchased. There was discussion about the about the Compact’s
ability to pay and the relativity of the amount being charged. T. Donegan urged the Board to research to see if
the Compact could re-locate somewhere else. P. Cocolis agreed the Compact can do homework so that the
Board has a baseline. The rent is $12.99/sf. M. Downey is comfortable the Compact is not being overcharged,
but will monitor and evaluate each budget year.
At 2:52 p.m. Sheila Lyons arrived to the meeting.
It was noted that the Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) between the Towns & Counties with the Cape Light
Compact does not include the Administrative Services Agreement which is between the Compact and the
County. T. Donegan suggested the Executive Committee consider the matter. S. Lyons said the CLC was
brought into the County in part because it was an income generator and the County has provided services to the
Compact from the beginning and supported it with the expertise of M. Downey and M. Zielinski at a sacrifice to
the County. P. Cocolis moved the Board vote to appropriate the Cape Light Compact FY16 Operating Budget
in the amount of $940,606.00, seconded by T. Carroll and voted by roll call as follows:
1. D. Anthony, Barnstable Yes 10. B. Worth, Secretary, Harwich Yes
2. S. Lyons, Barnstable County Yes 11. R. Toole, Oak Bluffs Yes
3. R. Schofield, Bourne Yes 12. T. Donegan, Provincetown Yes
